Some info from the course creator:

• The first thing to know about the Breathwork Facilitator training is this is not a yoga course. It’s open to anyone who has an interest in working with clients (1:1 or groups) to help support and heal trauma.
• You don’t need equipment and large amounts of money to get going. You learn the tools and then you and your clients start to feel better fast.
• Breathwork is one of the most cutting-edge and impactful ways to support people. And it doesn’t take as long as yoga or pilates teacher training either.
• I teach a variety of breathwork styles to support all clients. This is not a one-size-fits-all training.
• This is a four-month, accredited, 100-hour training to certify you as a breathwork facilitator.
